Import FIT activity
-
@Mff73
Yesterday I’ve tested Runalyze.
And I’ve got the same result, everything is fine when imported to Runalyze, but when they import to Suunto, no Ascent and Descent values in SA
I asked them and they told me that is an issue on Suunto side…
https://board.runalyze.com/d/59-sync-with-suuntoSo today I’m going to try Mytourbook…
Disappointed so far
-
@Johann In addition to the app syncmyttacks, I still know RunGap… But I think the latter only works with iOS. In the past, you could upload .gpx files via the PC at Sports-tracker.com if logged in via the same access data… maybe worth a try…
-
The only solution which worked for me was QS, but it does not work nowadays. No idea why this happened.
All other third party apps or gpx import via Sportstracker does not sync ascent/descent and other data. The best sync is working with Garmin and the app health sync in android (ascent and descent are available in SA and even the elevation profile).
-
@Johann
I tried and fit import with runalyze.com is working as usual and I have ascent and descent because my fit files are containing these values.
Yes, ascent and descent must be present in the fit file, Suunto won’t calculate them.
If fuelgaz doesn’t export these values, you won’t get them just by importing. It will need outside reprocessing. -
@pilleus It does not work now because the developer stopped the development. That happened because no one was paying or contributing and the service was not free but maintained out of pocket for the developer and by a few donors.
-
@Mff73
So, the “issue” comes from FulGaz FIT file because they don’t add both values into their extraction -
@Johann
probably. If you can share this fit file, one can check.
With Mytourbook, it is a little different, it is a desktop app, which can import your fit file, treat it (hopefully calculate ascent/descent), and then there is a recent feature to export this activity back to Suunto. It working quite “well”, as far as the activity doesn’t contain any pause (then there are some strange things happening in Suunto
root cause is still investigated). -

I paid via patreon over a year. But one day I was logged out and could not log in again. All data were lost. It was a bit disappointing. I like QS and it’s a great tool and outstanding web application.

@Mff73 It seems that runalyze.com does not sync “push” activities to SA, based on their reply.
For me, it is like SA is quite isolated
-
-
@Johann why they should, as they say they are not a syncing hub or app, they are a service on their own.
-
@isazi
I never say “They should”.
My concern is to try to import my indoor bike activity within SA.
@Mff73 kindly suggested me runalyze.com, and I only informed him that runalyze.com doesn’t delivery this service.@pilleus said in Import FIT activity:
SA = stand alone
-
@Johann runalyze does it, it does not do it automatically because doing it costs them money.
-
@Johann
I presumed that you knew how it works, but it seems not, sorry.
I thought you needed to import a (one) fit file. It is possible, one by one, with runalyze.com, but not as syncing service.
You need to link your runalyze.com account with Suunto, and then, as Isazi wrote, in runalyze.com, you have a feature to upload (one by one) an external fit file to Suunto.
Manually and one by one, yes, automatically, no.
-
@pilleus I pay as well, we were notified about the purge but it was a necessity as the non-payers vastly outnumbered the payers and there was no other way to reduce data storage to mitigate costs (my opinion from the little I know).
-
@Johann if you’re on IOs, you can try RunGap or Healthfit. RunGap is free to download and single activity tranfer uses but will need some sort of subscription if you want to automate, the other one is a paid app.
It does not seem to me that any of these can directly connect to FulGaz (for the reason that FG does not seem to allow you to connect to much platforms) but if your activities are sent to Strava (or you are willing to setup an account to do that, it can stay private), you can most probably find a way to automate their retrieval and forward them to SA. -

FulGaz also supports syncing to Strava.

@Mff73 oh merci pour l’information de comment uploader manuellement
@Brad_Olwin Sure, if I’m going to use their service. I will pay for the Supporter subscription. This is normal to pay a little their service if they help me. I just need to make more tests…
@wakarimasen Yes thank you.I’m still doing some tests as my bike is not ERG mode compatible and in FulGaz we cannot see the resistance level to set manually. Kinomap showed it, but with the latest release I’m not able to see it. I need to look furthermore to understand why and maybe to contact their support. But Kinomap export only in TCX and GPX, no FIT file, so in that case Runalyze is not useful for me
I’m still confused, and I don’t understand why in 2024 we are still not able to import FIT, TCX of GPX activity directly in SA…I hope this is in their roadmap for this year.

I can sync activity from Garmin, Polar, Strava, and others into Suunto using Health Sync on Android, FWIW. And it is free for that use case.
It’s not a FIT file though.
